Of course that's what will happen, the hockey gods hate us as evidenced by our IR list being longer than our active roster.

And it's not like their Dehydrated Donkey Dungty contracts would hurt them either! The year where Hughes would be eligible for his big raise is the same year Kovalchuk, Phaneuf, and Martinez are all off the books!

The Los Angeles Kings can’t seem to find any continuity as injuries continue to play a part in the team’s downfall this season. After just having acquired veteran Carl Hagelin from the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Kings announced they have placed him on injured reserve with a lower-body injury and consider him to be “week-to-week.”

Except for the particular injury, doesn't this exactly mirror the Duck's experience with Hagelin?

I’m glad the Kings won. If by some miracle they turn things around and make the playoffs I don’t see how they are going to win a Cup this year. They absolutely cannot draft Jack Hughes. He’s the real deal.

After letting Valentin Zykov pass through to the Edmonton Oilers earlier this week, the Los Angeles Kings were not going to watch another talented young forward go unclaimed. The Kings have claimed Nikita Scherbak off waivers from the Montreal Canadiens.

There was also that one time they let some chump from Edmonton slip through too. I wanna say, Aberg?

Aberg - 7g (650K)

Kovalchuk - 5g (6.25M)

Sometimes you can find a gem at the salvation army.

*Kovy has three more points but I'm going to do some hand waving at that

On Scherbak > LAK, our friends at @CapFriendly remind us that LA using LTIR $$ for awhile, allowed them to claim. It puts LA almost $2M over in cap value, not a small number. When Hagelin ready to return will be interesting, sending players down may not be enough. #tradecenter
